Abstract:

Prehistoric finds from the Ravaszlyuktető at Korlát have been known since the first decade of our century. The industrial remains and tools were repeatedly re-evaluated during the last 70 years and attributed to various prehistoric cultures from the Chelléan to the Mesolithic. The excavations started in 1983 unearthed a prehistoric workshop on about 125 m2 The workshop activity was obviously carried out on a much larger surface with distinct accumulations at a few spots and scattered traces all around. Although the culture-bearing layer settled right on top of the limnic quartzite bank, local extraction could not be attested to. The find material comprised cores, blades and implements in about 10% altogether. The 90% is represented by flakes and waste, most of them from pre-core production. At the present state of analysis, the workshop is attributed to the Upper Palaeolithic, although some features suggest that earlier and later production may be considered
